Near-infrared spectral imaging for quality assurance of pharmaceutical products: Analysis of tablets to assess powder blend homogeneity
2002
AAPS PharmSciTech
The objective of this study was to evaluate near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopic imaging as a tool to assess a pharmaceutical quality assurance problem -blend uniformity in the final dosage product. ...
The chemical nature of each pixel could be identified by the localized spectrum associated with each pixel. Both univariate and partial least squares (PLS) images were evaluated. ...
